Do you need a wrist rest? Why and why not? [Discuss]

Lets discuss

I prefer one but dont need it..... Its funny though, the lack of a wrist-wrest has kept me from buying keyboards in the past though (cm storm keyboards for example)

[Swndlr]

I like it, never used to have one until I got my K70 recently. I like it a lot but I never complained when I didnt have one with my previous keyboards.

[WereCat]

No. Because I have really large hands and long fingers so even with really big wrist rest my hands will still rest on the table.

[Paranoid Kami]

Wrist rests aren't large enough for my wrists to rest on them. Just wear a wrist band if you're having problems.

[flexluthor]

It's more of a palm rest than a wrist rest for my hands so my answer is no since the pressure is still on my wrist and the rest ain't helping.

[Clown]

I thought it would barely help until I got my corsair k65. Love it!

If you need one, your wrist will tell you.

Or are you suggesting a rule that every computer user has to follow?

I'm just curious if you use wrist rests or not and why. Its an opinion, not a rule

Well, there are people who refuse to buy keyboards that don't come with wrist rests (which just shows that they don't know about third party wrist rests heheheh)

 

And really, it's no different from asking "Do you need a mousepad?" or "Do you need 144hz to be competitive in FPS?" or "Do you need a mechanical keyboard?"
